Brooklyn-based DJ and Hercules and Love Affair frontman Andrew Butler started his career at 15 in a Denver leather bar whose hostess went by Chocolate Thunder Pussy.

BREAKING! Tech isn’t our normal beat but we couldn’t resist this one 
Here’s something you may not know: before he co-founded Guest of a Guest, Cameron Winklevoss was involved in the development of a certain now-ubiquitous social network. Now, Sony Pictures is producing “The Social Network“, which will tell the story of the founders of Facebook, and it was just announced that Cameron, along with his twin brother Tyler, will be portrayed by Gossip Girl actor Armie Hammer.

Last week, Stanley had the pleasure of being a guest Vice Magazine’s screening of “Where the Wild Things Are” at the Tribeca Grand. Every since, he has been on a full on “Wild Things” kick. The office is covered in his forts.

Pictures that are happening in NYC this week in preparation of the films Oct. 16th release. The full list of events is below. Go here for more ways to help you prepare for the movie. More »

And one that will be answered this weekend. More photos from last night’s screening below…. More »
The Cinema Society and Hugo Boss hosted a private screening of Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds” in New York on Monday, drawing an immense and star-studded crowd to the School of Visual Arts Theatre on 23rd street in anticipation of the courageous and visionary project.
